JANE J ORDAN
DEAR JANE JORDAN-—Perhaps you can give me some light on a problem I can't solve. I have been married for nine years to a lovely girl whom I do not love. It was a family affair and I realize now that I never have been in love with her. She is honest, am=bitious, good-looking and the tops in about every respect. I want very much to have my freedom and on several occasions I have made an attempt to leave her but just can’t do it. She loves me and thinks I love her, I have caused her a lot of unhappiness because of the situation. She is a person to be admired and respected but I can't love her, I want my freedom so badly but haven't the heart to leave her. What would happen to her? She has no parents, relatives or friends to turn to now. She would be all alone. There are no children. What can I do? PUZZLED.

Answer—Perhaps it isn't the girl whom vou de not love so much s the family who picked her out for vou. I realize how far fetched such a statement must seem to vou, and as a matter of fact, it only is a shot in the dark for I know next te nothing of veur affairs Family relations are apt to he a pretty confused mixture of love and hate, loyalty and rebellion and it often happens that one person gets all the negative reactions while the others escape condemnation,
1 am sure that you do not appreciate vour family's influence in making this match. Perhaps you try to excuse them by thinking they meant well and by admitting that the girl is a fine person. Nevertheless, your resentment against them is shown in the facet that you cannot love her, or think you can't. By inhibiting any tender emotion toward her you get even with them, so to speak. In other words, your lack of feeling for your wife may be an aggression against your family. “You picked my wife but you can’t make me love her.” Perhaps you would have loved her more if the family had been against her. People do not do these things purposely, The reactions I have described go on beneath the level of consciousness. I often have pointed out that it may be a disadvantage to a woman to have her husband's mother side with her. If a man gets the idea that the two women most interested in him have combined to control him, he may turn against one or both Sometimes he hates his wife in order to love his mother, but one of the women is pretty cure vo incur his displeasure
There are many other concealed factors which may account for your lack of emotion about your wife. I imagine she never has had a fair chance to win your affections because they are so entangled with your feelings toward your family. You may have identified her with your mother whom you admire and respect but who naturally has no physical appeal for you. Since you dread to hurt your wife by leaving her to go on alone, ft might pay you to look into some of these complicated emotions and gee if you can’t unravel something which explains your attitude. After nine years of believing that you are not in love, it is not likely that you ever will have a romantic urge for the woman, but you might come to think as much of her as any other man thinks of his wife after nine vears of intimacy.
